Technology & Security

It's AuditBoard's mission to improve the audit, risk, and ESG compliance posture of organizations.

Security & Compliance Programs

In order to protect our customers and their data, AuditBoard has adopted a formal information security management program that governs software development, infrastructure operation, administration, and delivery of the AuditBoard product application.

AuditBoard maintains an ISO 27001-certified information security program, along with an extensive control environment that is aligned with and regularly assessed against industry standard frameworks such as NIST 800-53, SSAE-18 SOC 2, Cloud Security Alliance STAR, and HIPAA. The AuditBoard application is hosted exclusively on cloud infrastructure that meets FedRAMP moderate impact compliance requirements.

Cloud-Hosted SaaS

The AuditBoard platform is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud infrastructure.

    All functionality is accessible from a web browser and any modern browser is compatible.

  • Redundancy

    Servers are replicated and load-balanced across data centers and regions.

  • Physical Security

    AWS data centers use biometric entry authentication and have 24/7 monitoring.

Access Controls

Configure granular access policies and role-based permissions.

    Use industry standard SAML 2.0 to integrate your corporate directory or identity providers such as Active Directory, OneLogin, Okta, and many others.

  • Two-Factor Authentication

    Require users to authenticate with phone-based one-time passwords (OTP) as a second factor.

    Strong end-to-end TLS 1.2 encryption protects customer data wherever it is transferred.

  • Storage Encryption

    All customer files, databases, and backups are AES-256 bit encrypted before being written to permanent disk storage.
